Psychology - July 2007

I smoke pot. I want to stop because when i smoke i get really paranoid and miss out on good times with freinds and family. Smoking pot gives me kinda a bond with the people i do it with and when i do it with them i fell accepted and a part of the group.But part of me knows that this bond is just fake and has no real deep meaning. Instead of taking the time and creating real deep meaningful freindships its easier to all bond on smoking bud. I really want to quit because i have now realized that it dosent make me cool and if people only accept me cause i smoke then there not good freinds.But even thou i realize this i still get that feeling and have a really hard time overcoming it. The problem is i cant stop bcause deep down i have this feeling that if i dont ppl wont accept me even thou i know they probably still will. How do i quit and get over thinking it makes me look cool and quit taking the easy road to social contact by smoking. I really want to quit. Any suggestions? thnx.

maybe because you were young or vunerable or some other reason, do you ever feel angry and enraged that you allowed it to happen to you? that you let people do this to you?
this is how i feel alot of the time, angry at myself that i didnt fight back in some way...
how can i deal with these feelings without feeling angry at myself for not fighting back and allowing it to happen to me?

I want to cultivate my inner self. I just started reading books, but I don't think that only this will provide me with all the appropriate "supplies" for my life. I would prefer to accept answers from people that have some close experience, either this means that they have already widened their cultural borders, or they were in the position that I'm now and acted in a way that brought them to the wanted "level".
P.S. I feel the need to ask, because all those months (or better years ) I was dedicated strictly to my lessons so as to pass to the university, here in Greece, where no chances for multilateral education are offered. Thank you in advance.

I have always been told that I'm smart, but feel dumb because I sometimes say or do little things that are ignorant, i.e. "brain fart" type of things. Doesn't everyone though? Trouble is, when I do these things at work, EVERYONE I work with brings every one of them to my attention in a very obnoxious way, and they look me right in the eye while doing it. It makes me want to hurt them physically, because I feel like I do not have the mental power to defeat them. I would really like to know what the best thing is to do.

My addiction is not staying focused.... I can stay focused but not as long as I want too. I would lock myself in a room and just study or work out or practice something, if I could. And I want too---Anyway I seem to have trouble doing that---Like now--- Im on Yahoo questions perfect example

what should i do?
im 30 years old, iam a bpd sufferer, and had psychological problems since 16, ive endured alot of unhappiness and trauma, i live in the uk and om waiting foor therapy..
but what i really desire in life is
to meet a canadian girl or a u.s girlfriend and i would love to move over there and build a new life, with a loving partner.
but i fear this will be to difficult to achieve, and i will never do it....or ill be prevented from doing it because of my history and record....and if this is the case i wont be able to accept that THAT CAN'T happen, and i fear i will terminate myself, because i dont want to stay here in britain living on welfare, i want a brand new life, i wanna better my life, and i wanna move far away from britain, to a warm sunny climate and meet a loving partner, and if that cant happen, resentment & bitterness will eat me up,& i wont be here long, in all my life ive never had a girlfriend or made any friends,& i want these dreams of mine to happen.

I love my girlfriend very much but I really dont see why monogamy is such a big deal. I think sex is not as sacred as most people make it out to be, maybe I am just being selfish and pig headed I am not sure???

There is one question that truly makes me believe in God: nothing can just be. Everything has a beginning. NO exceptions. Nothing just "is". But how was everything created if it had to result because of something? Or maybe, somethings truly can be, but this scares me, because it changes my whole view of life.

So who else has a question that drives you?

is it coz people are genuinely interested in those topics,
have no better work to do,
form of intellectual "chatting" increasing GK
take it like a challenge to win points,
whatever be the case, its definately addictive
